Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure of the given compound and the mechanism of the given reaction are to be determined.

Concept introduction:

1 NMR (hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance) is an analytical technique in chemistry to determine the purity and molecular structure of a compound.

13C NMR, or the carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance, is an analytical technique in chemistry to identify the carbon atoms in the structure of a compound. It is an important tool in structure elucidation of organic compounds. However, it can only detect the C13 isotope, and not C12, as the latter has zero net spins.

To determine the actual structure of organic compounds, IR spectroscopy (Infrared spectroscopy) is an invaluable tool. The use of electromagnetic radiation is involved in IR spectroscopy with frequencies ranging from 4000400 cm1.

Transesterification is a process in which the R group of an ester is exchanged with an R group of an alcohol. This process takes place in the presence of a base catalyst or an acid catalyst.

Acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of HOCH2CH2C(CH3)2CN forms compound A (C6H10O2). A shows a strong peak in its IR spectrum at 1770 cm-1 and the following signals in its 1H NMR spectrum: 1.27 (singlet, 6 H), 2.12 (triplet, 2 H), and 4.26 (triplet, 2 H) ppm. Draw the structure for A and give a stepwise mechanism that accounts for its formation.
2. Draw the structure of the products that will be formed when aniline reacts with nitrous acid at 5 °C, followed by: (a) CUCN (b) CuBr (c) KI (d) (1) HBF4, (2) heat (е) НзРО4, Н-0 (f) Cu2O, Cu2*, H2O
H NH₂ ཡིནྣཾ ༥ ཨ ཨནྡྷ༥ ༠ ཨི་ཝཱ, ཙ ཨ་ར༩ H NH3+ the acidity of the amine ion drives the reaction to shift toward the conjugate base of the carboxylic acid product. the resulting carboxylic acid ion is a weaker base than an acetate ion. O aldehydes are more reactive toward nucleophiles than ketones. Onucleophilic attack occurs preferentially at the less hindered carbon of the formyl group.
